Great to see an improvement on the JMA/NOGAPS. In recent days the output from these has been relatively poor. At the moment the UKMO +144 is looking rather lonely. Having said this I would be much happier if the 0Z outputs trends towards the E,ly tomorrow morning.
P.S Keep an eye on the trough currently in the N Sea. This will swing SW into NE England/Humber/Lincs/E Anglia later tonight. Some could wake up to a decent covering.
believe you me, i've been following that trough v closely. it may even impact on london

I find these dumbed down documentaries very depressing. it didnt deserve a whole hour in prime time, the preseter was not good and the overall content repetetive and simplistic. the only saving grace is that it wasnt made for channel 5!

sod the half hearted easterly, i want the FI northerly on the gfs fantastic we havent seen the gfs throw that out to much this winter, true arctic air mass 510 dam over much of the uk, polar lows likely bands of snow sinking south.....
shame it was not in a reliable time frame...
couldn't agree more james. shame it's FI, as you say
-
the pub run is interesting. 510 toying with our isles. great to have a good old blast from the north maybe
-
radar looks a bit rubbish, just waiting to see what that se trough triggers. thinks the beeb have overegged it a lot. snowcasting.....worse job in the world! i do think they may have the developments further north right though
-
Local weather with Peter Cockroft did seem slightly ott with the snow symbols for tonight and tomorrow.
Not often you see a five day forecast with five days below freezing in London!
i was thinking similar, but i think he was right, unless you're in soho or central london in general
-
drives me mad when the top story on the news announces record low temperatures. they're not
-
a little melt in sw london but now below freezing. why am i still awake is more alarming!!
-
looks like it's the stalling of the system coming south that may be the travel nightmare in central southern areas across towards the southeast. a very interesting 36 hours ahead
-
i'm expecting a sleety mix tomorrow here in london town due mostly on account of the timing. beyond that front clearing through mostly snow
-
well kent is in the fray tonight, alongside dublin and eastern scotland. maybe the far se of london may get a dusting
-
looking at the radar. some light snow in kent and east sussex. good luck guys
-
great output from the gfs 12z in the reality frame. it's just a waiting game for the majority of the southeast
-
i notice thomasz doesn't think it'll be cold enough for snow in london by the time the tuesday system gets down here(news 24 forecast at 12.57). i guess it depends on the timing. outside london any elevation will help, the chilterns, north downs etc, and anywhere with existing snow fields. after tuesday, then the real cold kicks in!!!

STREAMER ALL THE WAY BACK TO --- WARSAW---- SOMEONE FIRE UP THE WARSAW RADAR...
S
easy steve. can we have a polish streamer? copenhagen is as far as i would go
-
ok, tonights feature is very weak as it moves south, so don't expect much, if anything. all eyes are on tuesday's cold front. the main thing is that we will shortly be in entrenched cold, the like of which has been a rarity in recent years. snowcasting is going to remain difficult. that is its way annoyingly. my interest is actually in the atlantic battle back, and whether the southwest and south wales is dumped with epic snow. time will tell
-
hoping the snow holds off arriving for a couple of hours to let the temps drop!!
-
awesome synoptics. with regards to the arctic flow progged for early next week, i guess its the usual scenario. the sticking out bits of the uk and northern scotland will benefit. but as wib said all eyes on those fax charts for a trough or two
-
See this is my problem, I really don't understand where you get these figures from. I read your post and then looked at the Met Office temperature forecasts for the next four days. Doing a very rough calculation on the back of an envelope I made the average daytime temperatures taking in all areas of England and Wales at about 3.8c. So could someone explain where the figure of less than 0c comes from.
met office/bbc forecasts tend to focus on urban areas, therefore milder than the rural areas, often significantly
-
spectacular 0z. an epic cold spell coming up. a parcel of 510 air knocking on the door of the southeast in FI made me smile. just snowed in london
-
couldn't agree more with nick sussex. complacency is dangerous. we have waited a long while for such synoptics. it may not deliver to everyone, but be glad that it's still possible!
-
miserable day. rain now turning to a sleety mix, and a biting wind
-
I don't know why so many of you are wringing your hands about lack of snow through the middle part of this week. Apart from a little sleet or wet snow at first in the northern most regions (mostly on higher ground) there has never been any prediction of snow for the area - especially south of London till late this week. The best chance comes on Friday when snow showers are quite likely for many. From there lets wait and see, it is too far off atm but try and actually look at what has been forecast and not have expectations beyond that.
very wise words
-
country tracks is not on today is it?
no, but i believe the weekly forecast will be tagged onto the 11.55 bbc news
